Just in case you'd forgotten...With tighter shooting controls (as in it doesn't handle like a wounded wildebeest), new and returning faces and a whole new chunk of the universe open to exploration, ME2 is certainly bigger and badder than its predecessor. Irritating mining minigames aside, it's a triumphant return the Normandy for all concerned, even if BioWare (somewhat uncharacteristically) allow the main twist to pass by almost completely unnoticed. It's certainly a better game to actually play, you won't find many more universally apocalyptic thrills this side of Babylon 5. Thanks to PraxxtorCruel at HUKD originally and bobcsg for the repost.
